I'm so sorry this took so long to post. I've been really busy with school work and helping my sister move into her new house and I've been sick and in bed resting...*bows* please forgive me!

Bella's POV

"W-O-W" I sighed, exagerating each syllable as we arrived back in Forks. New buildings and parks whiz by as we speed through town. Children and Adults walking along the sidewalk. It all seemed so farmiliar yet so strange.
"Its really changed hasn't it?" Edward asks casually, more of a statement than a question. "I'll say!" I exclaimed, "Was that there?" I continued, jabbing my finger at the glass pointing towards parks and stores that i didn't recognize.
"Probably not..." He faded off, deep in thought. It was times like this that i wished I could read HIS mind.
Then Renesmee said teasingly, "We lived here? Eeeeewww!" She scrunched her nose for effect. She's such a drama queen. I chuckle.
"I hope the clearing is still there!" Emmett laughed.
Alice's bell-like giggles chimed in as she cuddles closer to Jasper, " I can't wait to teach Nessie how to play-ball"
"Oh yea," Emmett continued, "Nessie's never played has she"
"Nope" Alice replied, "So," Renesmee said, trying to change the subject, ",where's the house"
"Patience Nessie, We're almost there." Carsile answered, pulling on to a back road. I could have bounced through the roof of the car with how excited i was to be back in Forks, no matter how much it had changed. The little dirt road that lead to our old house was so overgrown with weeds and vines that you could barely see three feet infront of the car, which was saying something with vampire-vision. "Oh, I missed this house." I murmered, mostly to myself although i knew everyone else could hear. Then a thought popped int my head. "Do you think the cottage is still there Edward?" I asked. "Maybe." He muttered, still lost in thought. Noticing my anxiety he smiled one of those breath taking crooked smiles, although it didnt touch his eyes, it did ease some of my worry. "Oh you don't have to worry about that," Alice answered, ignoring Edward's recently be-fallen bad mood. "I hired a live-in-maid, and I still pay pretty decently, so it should be fine." She then cast Jasper one of those, help-him looks and Edward's shoulders slumped, all tension drained.
He gave a small nod to show Jasper he appreciated the gesture, and turned to me in a slightly better mood. "Hopefully she's not like the one from Isle Esme" He murmered.
The memories, fogged by human senses, returned to the forfront of my mind for only a moment, and a shudder escaped my fame before i had a chance to re-bury them. There were good memories in there too though, and I fought to hold on to those and lost myself in the smudged and blurry images. The way the moonlight reflected off of Edward's luminescent skin the first night on the island, The sheer bliss of the many nights, the pillows...Snapping out of it i let out a small laugh and mumbled, "Poor pillows..." Edward then joined my laughter.
"Am I missing something?" Renesmee asked, confused over our sudden change in mood.
Then, being the pain he is, Jacob made a mock gaging sound and whispered, "Yes, but dont worry about it Ness"
Rose smirked and opened her perfectly shaded mouth to comment but Alce stopped her mid-breath and said, "You can't say anything, how many houses was it again?" She mocked. Rose replied with a low snarl, sneered, and whipped her hair back around to continue staring out the window.
Renesmee shrugged, not have caught Alice & Rose's small argument, "Yea, okay, whatever" though i could tell by the light in her eyes that she was still curious. Her curly, auburn hair, now down to the bottoms of her shoulder blades, bounced as she turned and faced Jacob again. Why fate had matched them up i will never understand, but all-in-all, he was good for her and i was glad He of all people would be there for her if ever we weren't able to be. I'd trusted him with my life and now i trusted him with hers. I couldn't have picked anyone better for her. I smiled at them and gave a little chuckle as i remembered how mad i'd been when i'd first found out he'd imprinted on her, and how different i felt now. Then, my smile gave way to shock as we turned through the last of the spider-web of un-attended plants, and into our old front yard. All the memories of the house flooded back to me in a second and i gasped. "It's still so beautiful." I managed to utter. "Is the paint even chipped?" I then slipped out of the car the second it was parked and gave the house a thurough outer-scan as everyone else piled out.
Emmett gave a low whistle, "Wow, talk about sturdy architecture"
"Yup, still the same ol' Crypt" Jacob sighed causing Renesmee to giggle. The house was still as extravagant as the day we left it. Every window sill stillbright white, every window streak-free. I guessed the house-keeper was doing her job.
Edward's arms twisted their way around my waist and he rested his chin on my shoulder and whispered, "Wanna check the cabin?" Kissing the hollow of my throat soflty. If my heart had been able to beat it would've been pounding.
Regaining some grip on myself i grinned and turned in his arms so that we were nose to nose. "You'll have to catch me..." I sighed against his lips, then slip out of his grasp and flew off into the woods. Hearing him nearing on me i sped up. Though I was no longer a newborn i knew i still had some energy left. When the cabin came into view i caught a strange scent on the wind, but payed no mind to it. I burst in the door, thinking I'd beat Edward, though as soon as I set a foot across the threshold his voice reached my ears. "I win" He teased, sweeping me up in his arms like the first day we'd come to the cabin.
"But i will beat you, maybe not this deca-" I was cut off by a rough voice coming from a shadowy corner. It said, "What are you doing in MY house?"
